Title: Integration d'une pile a combustible a l'interieur d'un generateur de vapeur a recuperation de chaleur
Inventor: BERLOWITZ PAUL J
IPC: H01M8/04
Filed: 2014-09-29
Abstract: L'invention concerne des systèmes et des procédés pour incorporer des piles à combustible à carbonate fondu dans un système de génération de vapeur à récupération de chaleur (HRSG) en vue de produire de l'énergie électrique tout en réduisant également, ou en portant à un minimum, le volume de CO2 présent dans les gaz de combustion sortant du HRSG. Un écran ou une paroi multicouche optionnel de piles à combustible à carbonate fondu peut être inséré dans le HRSG de manière à ce que l'écran de piles à combustible à carbonate fondu remplisse la majeure partie de la section transversale. L'utilisation des parois du HRSG et de l'écran de piles à combustible à carbonate fondu pour former un collecteur d'entrée de cathode permet de réduire la quantité globale de conduits ou de passages d'écoulement associés aux piles à combustible à carbonate fondu.

Title: Alkali metal silicides for high temperature wettability improvement in carbonate reservoirs
Inventor: KRUMRINE PAUL H
IPC: C09K8/06
Filed: 2014-10-17
Abstract: A process for altering a wettability characteristic of a carbonate formation to stimulate oil production includes selecting an oil bearing carbonate formation, injecting a silicide dispersion into the carbonate formation, and reacting the injected silicide dispersion with water. The reaction alters the wettability characteristic of the carbonate formation toward water wettability. The silicide dispersion can include an alkali metal silicide, such as sodium silicide. The reaction generates hydrogen, silicate, and heat that pressurizes the carbonate formation with the generated hydrogen, heats the carbonate formation with the generated heat, and reduces the viscosity of the hydrocarbons in the carbonate formation with the generated silicate. The reaction re-mineralizes the surfaces in the carbonate formation and alters the wettability characteristics of the carbonate formation as a calcium-silicon phase is formed. The hydrocarbons are recovered from the carbonate formation with a production well.
